Day 1
Reykjavík City, Golden Circle and Northern Lights
Arrival from the US in Keflavik Airport in the morning. Our private driver waits for you at the airport and takes you to your hotel. Accommodation at a 4 star hotel, located in central Reykjavik, double/twin room with private facilities including a breakfast.
At a supplement you can chose an early check in.
Take an afternoon tour and visit the Golden Circle, which is famous for the geothermal Geyser area, The Gullfoss waterfalls and Þingvellir National Park, where the American and the Eurasian Tectonic Plates meet. The Golden Circle is a fascinating experience. You can walk around the world-famous Geysir geothermal area, a geothermal field where hot springs are in abundance. You can choose to do the Golden Circle tour in a Super Jeep and add on a snowmobile trip. You also stop by the magnificent Gullfoss waterfall and visit Þingvellir National Park, the original site of the oldest existing parliament in the world, and where the Mid-Atlantic rift is clearly visible; a rift that is slowly pulling Iceland apart along tectonic plates. In Thingvellir, you can stand on a bluff and see the Mid-Atlantic ridge as it carves its way north and east into the island’s interior.
In the Evening you go on a tour to hunt for the Northern Lights.
